Soon everybody would have lost at least one member of their immediate family dead. Gone. All due to the colour of their skin.
As I cross the railway line, on my way to Miss Nicole’s house. I seen a group of innocent white children who came up showing off their new toys to their mothers frustration:
“Step away from that Nigger woman. Now!” she shouted to her children like they’ve sinned. I replied:
“Sweet children go to your dear mother.”

As a maid I spent all my working life bringing their kids up for them whilst they play Bridge and what do we get? Three dollars a week, for thirteen hour days, seven days a week.

Assessment Protocols
•
Warm up the prompt by reading something short, such as a picture book, that
matches the prompt.
•
The prompt is to be “loose”, that is the student can write on any subject that comes
to mind, tweaking the prompt to fit him/her.
•
The mode of the piece is narrative. This simply means a personal experience.
•
The maximum time to write is 30 minutes. When the student is finished, proceed
with other assessments or share the pieces you wrote to one another.
•
The teacher writes as well. This encourages and motivates the student, showing
him/her you value the writing
•
This piece is to be an “on-demand” piece. This means that the writer is not to
recopy. It is expected to be a rough draft.
•
Provide composition paper with lines, or use the spiral and tear the paper out. You
can cut off the messy ripped paper along the side if you want later.
•
The primary “topics” to use are subjects many authors write about: a favorite
person, place or thing. Writers usually tell about their favorite using the narrative
mode because the narrative, a true story that follows a story line, is more
interesting.
